Visual Version Control with JetBrains IDEs

[Presented by Paul Everitt and Maria Khalusova]
Using version control systems (VCS) like git from the command-line is powerful, but arcane and error-prone. Moreso for more-advanced features. JetBrains IDEs put a visual face on version control, making you more productive and tying version control into the rest of your programming workflow.
In this session, we show “Visual VCS” by simulating a real-world collaboration between two developers on a project. We’ll cover cloning repositories, branching, committing changes, merging, creating pull requests, and other aspects of the GitHub Flow model. We’ll finish with an overview of more-powerful VCS features in the IDE.
